1. Introduction
A. Opening Statement

The Bible, while not using the term “drama” directly, is filled with theatrical
elements—narratives, parables, symbolism, prophetic actions, and even divine
enactments. Drama, at its core, is storytelling in action. The Biblical foundations of drama affirm that creative expression can be a holy vehicle to communicate divine truth.
“Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd in parables; he did not say anything to them without using a parable.”
– Matthew 13:34
